    Hi there! so amazing! As I plan my Machu Picchu trip (post Covid) , do you know if you were able to (or if you tried) to enter the site earlier than what your ticket time said to enter? For example, my ticket to enter says from 1400-1500…. Im wondering if you think they May let me in early (weekday - low season) in thr AM like when they first open? Or would i have to wait until that Time? Thanks in advanced for any information.

    Hi Ruben, great question 👏 Unless something has changed since we were there, I don't think they let people in early. Our timed entry was 2p and we were not allowed to board the buses until 1:20p. We hope you enjoy your trip to Peru 🧳✈️🇵🇪 You may have already watched it, but we did film a video on Machu Picchu to show the overall experience.

    Happy to post the video, thank you for watching 🙌 From Cusco to Machu Picchu City (Aguas Calientes) was about 5 hours long. For the bus, you can only arrive one hour prior to your Machu Picchu entry time, but it takes 15 -20 minutes to the entry of Machu Picchu from Machu Picchu City (Aguas Calientes). We hope this helps and we hope you enjoy your time in Peru 🧳✈️🇵🇪

    Thanks Emilio 🙌 We put a lot of our tips and recommendations in this video and our Machu Picchu video (kzread.info/dash/bejne/qY6EmZtveMebd6g.html). With that said, we use a service called Faredrop (created by the massive KZreadrs Kara and Nate) and frequently see good deals to fly to Peru. Also, if you are looking to explore more of Peru, there is a company called PeruHop that we used to explore and see much of Peru. Other than those tips, we would say to get to Peru as soon as you can because it is such an amazing country 🇵🇪💛

    Hi! First, thank you so much for sharing all of your insight on Peru! It has been helping my husband and I greatly to prepare for our trip next week! Wondering if you decided to take a plane from Lima to Cusco. When trying to book online we notice a huge difference in price between the Latam Peru/US site. We have been hearing that there is a ‘foreigners tax’ that can be charged at the gate for foreigners. Do you know this to be true?

    Hi Natalie 👋 Thank you for this absolutely amazing comment, we really appreciate it 🙌 We are so glad our Peru series has been helpful for planning your upcoming trip. You are going to love Peru 🇵🇪💛 We did fly from Lima, to Cusco, and back to Lima, but did not encounter any foreigners tax at the gate. From what I can remember, it was a smooth travel day. I can't say for sure the tax doesn't exist, but we did not encounter it on any of our flights in Peru. We hope this helps and that you and your husband have an amazing time in Peru 🧳✈️🇵🇪 If you have any other questions, please feel free to reach out 😃

    They are called motion sickness relief wristbands and we got ours on Amazon (amzn.to/3EkqnKk). They do a good job, but Alicia will often take a motion sickness medication prior to a boat ride or bumpy car ride, etc. Hope this helps 🙌

    Hi Vanessa. Great question. When we took the train, we did not need proof of our vaccination. With that said, we usually have our vaccination cards with us just in case. if we don't, we always have a picture of our vaccination cards, front and back. A picture of our vaccination card has sufficed every time we have used it. We hope you have an amazing time in Peru 🧳✈️🇵🇪

    Thank you for leaving us a comment Phil and Nichole 🙌The train experience is different, for sure, and there are pluses and minuses. The minuses are obvious, but the huge plus is how different the experience was at Machu Picchu. It was empty, we couldn't believe it. Now, for the sake of tourism, we hope that changes soon. But for the moment, we took it all in for everything it was worth 😀

Simply, they drive you mostly in a sh*tty smelly bus and not in a train. If you want more info, feel free to send me a message.
